My second life is a bit strange?

"I'm sorry for talking to the store manager for so long and ruining your good mood."

Hearing Kato's words, Kaede snapped out of her thoughts: "No, won't my family worry if I don't go home this late?"

Kato shook his head: "When my family called earlier, I told them I was staying at a classmate's house."

She never expected that the store manager would actually see her message and come to her rescue, even preparing to spend the night with her.

[I clearly sent messages to every colleague.]

[Only the store manager can see this.]

【really..】

The store manager is special.

"So what do we do now? Should we tell our family we're going back to live here?"

Kato was also hesitant. His mother would definitely ask him why he had come back to live here, and whether he was having an affair with his classmates.

Perhaps a typhoon is approaching; strong winds are blowing outside, and rain and mist are rising.

The rain finally intensified, pattering against the glass. Perhaps because the shop lights were on, some passersby gathered at the entrance, standing under the awning to shelter from the rain, gazing at the dark sky and letting out a soft sigh of annoyance.

Feng pushed open the door: "Everyone, come in and take shelter from the rain."

The store was quickly packed with customers, some of whom were hungry and wanted to order some food.

Feng put on her apron: "Today, I, as the store manager, will personally run the business."

The guests cheered, "Long live the manager!"

Soon, the aroma of vanilla filled the room, and the freshly baked cakes sold out instantly. After a sip of hot tea, the rain didn't seem so bothersome anymore.

The typhoon isn't going to stop anytime soon, so some guests took taxis and others had their families pick them up.

The shop became quiet again, with only a few people around.

"Don't bother packing, let's talk about it tomorrow. What are you going to do tonight? I'll take you home."

"No need to trouble the manager, I'll just stay here for the night."

"That won't do. Why don't you come stay at my house for the night and sleep in the same room as my sister?"

Feng hailed a taxi, pulled her into the car, and didn't give her a chance to resist.

Sitting in the car, Kato's heart was pounding; this was her first time spending the night at a male classmate's house.

The store is only a few kilometers from home, so even if we drive slowly during a typhoon, we arrive quickly.

As soon as Feng got out of the car, he rushed home. He was still soaked by the rain. The temperature dropped suddenly because of the typhoon, and he was shivering from the cold.

"Son's back? I've prepared the hot water for you, hurry up..." The mother was halfway through her sentence when she saw that Feng had brought back another girl she had never seen before.

She grabbed his ear and pulled him aside, saying, "You brat, there's a limit to how much of a womanizer you can be. How many is this now?"

Kato watched this scene, feeling awkward and unsure of what to do.

"No, Mom, you've misunderstood."

"I'll listen to your explanation later. Go take a shower first, and then go get her a clean towel."

Feng covered his ear in pain, went to his room to get a towel, and led Kato to the bathroom. Because his clothes were wet, the pink under his white shirt was faintly visible.

He awkwardly looked away and spoke to Kato about some matters.

The quick-witted Kato realized what was happening and blushed.

I took a hot shower and was soaking in the tub when I was still lost in thought.

Feng explained to his mother.

“Go get a mattress and sleep in the study. How can you let a guest share a bed with your sister?”

In the middle of the night, Kato lay on Kaede's bed, the familiar scent filling his nostrils, listening to the dripping sound, and watching the rain stream down the window.

This reminded her of a little game she used to play with her brother when they were little, a game about fighter jets on glass. She chuckled softly, pulled the blanket around herself, and rolled over.

I'm sure I'll get a good night's sleep tonight.

Just as Feng was getting ready for bed, her phone beeped. She opened it and saw a message from Xiao Boqi, which was quite unusual.

Will the class monitor come tomorrow?

At this moment, Pochi-chan is probably tossing and turning in bed, unable to sleep.

"Will."

"I hope tomorrow will be a good day." As she said this, Boqi sent a picture of a teru teru bozu (a Japanese doll made by Boqi herself).

But reality often doesn't go as planned. When Feng woke up, he saw a dark, oppressive rain outside the window, which continued to fall, making it hard to breathe.

Feng simply fried two slices of bread, made a cup of milk, sat in the living room, turned the TV volume down to the lowest setting, and leisurely watched the morning drama.

"Good morning, manager."

Kato Megumi came out of the room, wearing his T-shirt, the hem of which dragged on his thighs.

"Good morning, your clothes should be dry by now, I'll go get them for you."

Kaede took Kato's clothes out of the dryer and ironed out the wrinkles.

"sorry to bother you."

Kato changed his clothes and ate the breakfast that Kaede had prepared. The two chatted quite happily. Xiao Gui followed the aroma and came over, rubbing her eyes, and asked, "Brother, what did you have for breakfast?"

“Bacon bread and milk, and she is my sister, Shirogane Kei.”

"Huh?" Bai Yingui then noticed that there was someone sitting on the sofa. He blinked. Was it because the room was too dark that he didn't notice?

Good morning, Xiao Gui.

"Good morning."

Chapter 132 Rock and Roll That Dispels the Typhoon

What are you planning to do today?

"I'm struggling with this too."

Kato Megumi tried to hail a ride using a mobile app, but after more than ten minutes, no one accepted the order. The streets were eerily quiet, and not a single car could be seen.

"If you don't mind, you can stay here for now and leave after the rain stops, it'll be safer that way."

"That's the only way. Thank you for your help."

"It's ok."

The tea in the cup had gone cold, so Feng added some hot water, chatting with Kato Megumi while tutoring Kei Koya.

He glanced at the time and prepared to leave.

"I'll cook lunch for you and put it in the refrigerator."

"Doesn't the store manager eat lunch at home?"

"Yes, I promised someone I'd go out for a while."

Xiao Gui looked up at the window; the rain showed no signs of letting up, and a hint of worry appeared on her brow.

"Don't worry, shop manager. I'm very confident in my skills. I'll take care of Xiao Gui."

"It's been such a big help."

"No, store manager, please be careful when you go out."

Kaede changed her shoes, opened her umbrella, and set off. She waited for a while in front of Eriri's house, but the umbrella couldn't completely block the rain, and her trouser legs were already wet.

Arriving at the Starry Sky in Eriri's family's car, the steps at the entrance formed small waterfalls, making one marvel at how good the drainage system was, as it hadn't been flooded.

Many customers weren't coming because of the weather, and Goto was worried that the class president might not be able to come either, even though he had promised her last night.

Kaede folded her umbrella, grabbed Eriri's hand, and ran inside. Just as she was about to push the door open, she remembered something, took out the star-shaped glasses that Goto had given her from her pocket, and they twinkled.

"Where did you get these glasses?"

"That's cool, right?"

Kaede pulled Eriri inside: "Yo~ everyone!"

The cheerful sounds immediately broke the dull atmosphere.

"Oh no, Pochi's rival has arrived."

"They're holding hands."

Nijika and Kita huddled together, chatting amongst themselves.

"Squad leader." Goto was overjoyed to see him arrive.

"I didn't expect you to come even in such heavy rain."

Kaede took the dry towel handed to her by the shop manager and first helped Eriri wipe the rain off her body.

"Of course, I was Boqi-chan's first fan."

A pink arrow seemed to pierce Pochi's heart, and he went limp.

He let out a perverted laugh.

"Godo, good luck!"

Eriri also cheered for the other person, showing her fangs and looking full of energy, giving the other person great encouragement.

"The rain is pouring down."

Before they saw him, they heard his voice. A familiar figure walked in, leaning against the railing and greeting them: "Oh, it's the white-haired guy, you're here too."

"Where's your bass? Did you lose it again?"

Gumbling.

The woman tilted her head back and took a big gulp of wine. She staggered over to him, carrying the bottle, and put her arm around the boss's arm: "How could that be? That's my treasure. I didn't bring it out today because I wasn't performing."

Eriri remembered him. During the performance the day before yesterday, the woman on stage whispered in Kaede's ear, "Is it really okay for you to drink so much?"

The strong smell of alcohol on the other person wafted over to her; it's too dangerous for him to get so drunk in this weather.
